This is not an application thread, read the stickie it will clearly dictate the do's and don'ts about getting involved.
After the opening Friday all queries will be dealt by the hosts in the IRC chat room on the night. This thread will become a sole update and feedback thread as stipulated in the DIGCMO sticky.

As mIRC loads a small screen will pop up with the makers picture, just press continue.
Another window will pop up, this will be a mIRC options window.
There will be 4 boxes. Full name, email addy, nickname and alternative.
You can fill full name and email in with anything you want.
Put the nickname you want in nick and a alternative on incase someone else is using it.
On the left side of that box there is a list (catagory) connect will be blue because thats the part of options your on.
Click servers (found just below connect)
There are 2 boxes, the second is IRC server and at the right side there is a pull down menu, hit the pull down and find Quakenet random uk server (alphabetical order) then click the connect to server button.
It will take a minute and you will see something like.

mirc is only easy to the ones who've used it.
A lot of clans use it but new players never had, i've never came across a new player looking for a game that can get into the chat room, most folk use msn or yahoo or something similar cos its easy, so a wee guide on how to set it up and use is a good idea.
